Resistance: the source of all suffering
Any time you are suffering, one thing is certain. You are resisting something … thoughts, feelings, emotions, circumstances, life. What are you resisting today? Maybe I can help?
Have you read Kick the Thinking Habit yet? πŸ™
If you click the classroom tab at the top of the page you'll see I have uploaded a free copy of my 269-page book Kick the Thinking Habit which walks you step-by-step through the entire process of disentangling yourself from a busy mind to discover the ever-present peace beneath the surface. If you have read the book, I have a huge favour to ask. Would you consider going to the book's Amazon page and leaving an honest review. that would help me massively. The links are below. Thanks! πŸ™ Amazon US Amazon Uk

The Self-Compassion Break
Most people who struggle with an overactive mind also tend to be hard on themselves. if a toddler is learning to walk and keeps falling over, you understand that it's normal. In the same way, when we are learning to make peace with the mind, messing up is normal. It's important to learn to be kind to ourselves. The Self-Compassion Break is a powerful 3-part practice to use for developing self-compassion. Begin by putting your hands on your heart. Feel the warmth and comfort. 1. Simply acknowledge "This is a moment of difficulty." 2. Reflect " Struggling is a normal part of being human. Everybody struggles at times." 3. Say to yourself "In this moment, I choose to be kind, loving and compassionate towards myself." Try it and be sure to leave a comment below. With peace, love and kindness, Richard

@Sandi Orner You're welcome Sandi. Sounds like you have a belief that no matter how much you give, it's never enough. Question whether that is true.

@Mel Lomas Hi Mel, Binging is so common.... and so human. Whenever we 'fail' at anything we have a simple choice - to beat ourselves up and create more suffering or to try to be kind and gentle towards ourselves. I posted another post called The Self-Compassion Break above. This is a great practice for nurturing self-compassion. Only binging twice a week sounds like you have a fair amount of control. Do you remember to praise yourself for the times you are successful?

Does this resonate? Would you agree that "inner narrative is everything?" I'm happy to answer any questions you may have.

@Sujata Bhakta I would say so. But not any old meditation. You could potentially meditate for years, learn to quiet the mind... but not understand the significance of the still, silent space within . There is a big (crucial) difference between believiing that 'I, the small, separate self, am experiencing peace, stillness expansion etc and recognising that THAT is the true Self. It is more who I am than the passing mind traffic. Does that make sense? There are specific meditations that help us see this and others that don't.
